Yuksel, Serkan; Yuksel, Esra Pancar; Yenercag, Mustafa; Soylu, Korhan; Zengin, Halit; Gulel, Okan; Sahin, Mahmut (E-Century Publishing Corp, 2014)The coronary slow flow phenomenon (CSFP) is the delayed opacification of coronary arteries in the absence of significant stenosis. The pathogenesis of CSFP has not been completely understood yet. There are several proposed ... -
Assessment of Atrial Electromechanical Delay and Left Atrial Mechanical Functions in Patients with Psoriasis Vulgaris
Aksan, Goekhan; Nar, Gokay; Soylu, Korhan; Inci, Sinan; Yuksel, Serkan; Ocal, Hande Serra; Gulel, Okan (Wiley, 2015)ObjectivesIncreased frequency of atrial fibrillation (AF) has been demonstrated in psoriasis cases. Prolongation of the duration of atrial electromechanical delay (AEMD) is a well-known characteristic of the atrium, which ... -
Association of gamma-glutamyl transferase activity with coronary risk factors
Demircan, Sabri; Meric, Murat; Demir, Serdar; Yuksel, Serkan; Gulel, Okan; Zengin, Halit; Soylu, Korhan (Cardiology Academic Press, 2013)BACKGROUND: The association of gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) activity with oxidative processes, which play an important role in atherogenesis, has been demonstrated in clinical studies. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the ... -

Catheter-related atrial thrombus: tip of the iceberg?
Dilek, Melda; Kaya, Coskun; Karatas, Ahmet; Ozer, Ismail; Arik, Nurol; Gulel, Okan (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2015)Although guidelines recommend catheters as a last resort for establishing a vascular access in patients undergoing dialysis, they continue to be used widely for this purpose. Catheter-related atrial thrombus (CRAT) is ... -
Coexistence of pulmonary embolism, aortic dissection, and persistent left superior vena cava in the same patient
Elmali, Muzaffer; Gulel, Okan; Bahcivan, Muzaffer (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2008)We report a patient with pulmonary embolism, dissection in the descending and abdominal aorta, and persistent left superior vena cava. To our knowledge, coexistence of these three clinical entities has never been described ... -
Coronary artery wall enhances with intracoronary injection of echocontrast media during in vivo intravascular ultrasound
Gulel, Okan; Sipahi, Ilke; Tuzcu, E. Murat; Kapadia, Samir (Elsevier Science Bv, 2007)Currently, vascularity of the coronary artery wall can be assessed only in vitro. We sought to determine if there is any contrast enhancement of the coronary artery watt after injection of echocontrast media during in vivo ... -
Early left ventricular systolic and diastolic dysfunction demonstrated by myocardial performance index and tissue Doppler imaging in psoriasis patients: Early deterioration of cardiac functions in psoriasis
Yuksel, Serkan; Yuksel, Esra Pancar; Gulel, Okan; Demircan, Sabri; Senturk, Nilgun; Aydin, Fatma; Sahin, Mahmut (Cardiology Academic Press, 2013)BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Psoriasis is a chronic, immune-mediated disease and associated with a higher prevalence of cardiovascular problems. In the present study, left ventricular (LV) systolic and diastolic functions in ... -
Echocardiographic assessment of pulmonary arterial stiffness in human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients
Cerik, Idris Bugra; Meric, Murat; Gulel, Okan; Cerik, Hatun Ozturk; Coksevim, Metin; Soylu, Korhan; Sahin, Mahmut (Wiley, 2019)Background Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is one of the complications of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Despite the emergence of effective therapies, pulmonary arterial hypertension is commonly seen, especially ... -
